Snuggle sessions
Most dogs love cuddles, especially during the colder months. Spend an evening in, snuggle up on the sofa for Pupflix and chill, and give your BFF all the belly rubs they can handle. Sometimes, the best gift is simply being together.
Teach a new trick or game
Dogs love to learn, and teaching a new trick or playing a new game can be a wagtastic bonding experience. Try “find the treat” or a simple hide-and-seek game around the house to keep their minds sharp and spirits high.
